Got the mkv to show without transcoding, it seems that mediatomb does not just add the new mime types, so I thought of an re-import, but no luck.

I then deleted all the files on the mediatomb site http://192.168.80.1:49153/, drop the database tables in pluto_mediatomb, recreated them using the /usr/share/mediatomb/mysql.sql and restarted the core; no luck with sudo /etc/init.d/mediatomb restart.

This then started the DB import, and I can see the mkv files now.

Also added the following <map from="mka" to="video/x-matroska"/>

Next step, see if I can get my galaxy tab to see and play the files, that should be easy now as the WD live tv, does it.

Really silly, but my c++ is none existant and I am trying to test reading the id3 tags.

Pieced this together of the internet but getting compile errors, advice welcomed. Just want to pass the id3 tag file and then display output, just checking to see how it works, yes will get a c++ for dummies

There is a list of development packages in here in the file build-packages, but we need to make one slight change, as there is one package that is in here that is normally not available on standard LinuxMCE system (it's related to some DVB stuff that VDR uses, which is not relevant for you, but if we don't get rid of it, apt will complain that the package does not exist.)

I went ahead, would these below, class for troublesome packages and should be removed
